Stocks plunged over 90 points at one time on Monday, December 20th. However, that produced enough of an oversold condition once again, that buyers stepped in and have taken $SPX all the way back to the top of its trading range, at 4700. The lower end of the trading range is 4500 (see Figure 1), although there is also support at this week's lows, 4530. $SPX has tried numerous times to break out over 4705 and hold those gains but has been unable to do so. But market internals have improved somewhat, so maybe this time it will happen.

$SPX is in a very volatile trading range, as $SPX has traversed the 4600 to 4700 area several times. Each time it declines, oversold conditions arise, spurring a rally. But then it fails at the top of the range. 4600 is the nearest support, with support at 4500 and 4300 below that.

Stocks have been down and volatile for the last week -- an unusual time of the year for that to be the case. The new omicron COVID variant is being blamed, but that was merely the catalyst for unleashing a lot of selling that has been building up. Market internals have been deteriorating for a long time.

Suddenly, there is once again a wide discrepancy in performance between two of the major indices -- $SPX and $NDX -- and the rest of the stock market. This is reflected by sell signals and negative readings in breadth and put-call ratios. However, the $SPX chart and the indicators involving $VIX and implied volatility remain bullish.
